Title
Centennial Park Aquatic Center Structural Evaluation of Slides and Elevated walkway and attached handrails
History
Centennial Park Aquatic Center will turn twenty five years this season. In an effort to be proactive and identify any possible deterioration staff has requested that a comprehensive structural evaluation of our three (3) elevated slide towers, elevated walkway and attached handrails. The evaluation will make us aware of any areas of repair that are needed as well as provide us a good basis for budgeting. The Villages engineering firm, Christopher B. Burke Engineering LTD, has contacted J.V. Henik for this service. Staff has worked with J.V. Henik in the past and they have provided a very accurate and detailed evaluation of structural issues in the past. J.V. Henik has submitted a proposal for $5,900.00 which includes the rental of an aerial lift to perform the work.
This agenda item is being considered by the Parks & Recreation Committee and the Village Board of Trustees on the same night.
Financial Impact
Funds are budgeted and available for this work in FY2017 in account 283-4005-432800.
Recommended Action/Motion
I move to recommend to the Village Board to approve the structural engineering services for Centennial Park Aquatic Center to J.V. Henik Inc, of Des Plaines IL, for an amount not to exceed $5,900.00.
